Top Picks in Slide Sandals

by Joyce Amerson

It's that time of the year again, summer! Time to let loose of those toes that have been hibernating all winter long and slip on a pair of slide sandals. Either walking on the beach or going out for lunch with friends, a pair of slide sandals are the perfect summer accessory. I'm sure at one point or time every girl has owned a pair of slide sandals, just waiting to be worn. And if you don't, there are tons of styles and designs this season that make you drool with excitement. Just check out what we have here on our top picks in slide sandals:

1. The Sexy Slide Sandal

When thinking about a slide sandal, many probably think of flip-flops or something that's really casual. But there are really sexy slide sandals out there that are a great pick for day or night. One of my personal favorites is the Betseyville Pacifica Slide Sandal, which is on sale for about $50. The sandal comes in red, black or white and has these adorable heart cut-outs along the two overlay straps in the front and back of the shoe. Also making this a really sassy shoe is its fabulous 4 ' inch heel. But don't think this is a sandal that'll make your feet scream with pain. Its rubberized shoe is a fabulous feature that'll make your feet feel extra comfy as you strut down the street.

2. Wood Sandal

Although the thought of wearing a shoe made completely out of wood may sound a little uncomfortable (not to mention heavy!), it's actually a cool piece of footwear that really makes a statement. The Original Dr. Scholl's Sandals are definitely a casual, yet slightly dressy slide sandal that will go perfect with a pair of skinny jeans or a beautiful summer dress. This sandal comes in a variety of colors and styles'which for a girl is always a good thing. And since it's Dr. Scholl's, you know its going to be comfortable!

3. Dressy Sandal

Got a special occasion you have to go to and can't find the right shoe? Why not go for a dressy slide sandal. And the perfect choice for a great dressy slide sandal is the Jimmy Choo 'Kel' Slide Sandal for $565. The Kel Sandal is a cute dainty shoe that comes in a bold snakeskin pattern and a precious 2 inch kitty heel. Although it's more of a formal shoe, these Jimmy Choos are extremely comfortable and can be worn for hours on the dance floor.

4. The Wedge Sandal

In the summer, wedge sandals are always in style. Not only do they add a little height and dressiness to an outfit, but they are ridiculously comfy. Modern Vintage Shoe's Pietra Cork Wedge Slide Sandals is definitely a fierce pair of wedge sandals. This simple yet classic pair of wedges adds a touch of whimsy with its cork wedge. Definitely something to check out when trying to dress up a pair of jean cut-offs or wide leg trousers.

5. The Ultimate Casual Sandal

When it comes to the ultimate slide sandal, nothing compares to the flip flop. For those all those fashion snobs out there sneering at the thought of wearing a dingy pair of flip flops hear me out. These days, high-end designers are transforming the simple flip flop into something more fashion forward. Take for example the Tory Burch 'Miller' Logo Thong Sandal which is a chic patent leather flip flop that comes in a stunning coral color and displays the famous Tory Burch logo in front. This is definitely a flip flop to be envied about.

So there you go our top 5 slide sandals. Hopefully you'll find your perfect slide sandal the next time you head out to the stores. But just remember to get a fresh pedicure before you show them off!
